Time for a summary. Below is the history of CF's company in Oklahoma. That would cover the period of 2004 to 2009. Note the gaps. Below is a screenshot of the BECC November 2014 corporate presentation.
We know that CF has claimed to have global operations and to have fracked thousands of wells over a long period of time (vagueness is his). So, I must ask during this post mortem period, do these claims make sense?
Does anyone really believe that the OK LLC that kept coming and going was actively involved in fracking thousands of wells and chose the latest technology to do it as CF would have you believe? Then there was Breitling Oil and Gas, Inc., in the four years of its existence, did it do what CF claims? That would put it ahead of some of the larger independents in the country in terms of drilling. B O&G is covered by the corporate presentation. Does that look like the presentation of a global company that has actively participated in technology selection and the fracking of thousands of wells? The company participated in its first horizontal well in 2009. So were these thousands of wells fracked wells vertical, must have been because there simply no way Breitling participated in thousands of horizontal wells in the 4 or 5 years between 2009 and when he started his claims. Between 1/1/2009 and 1/1/2015 approximately 84,000 horizontal wells were completed. In the same period, slightly less than 300,000 wells were drilled, so in order for CF's insinuations to be true he would have had to influence the design of a noticeable portion of all drilled wells. And yet he is almost unknown in the industry except for his own assertions.
So, other than Reaper, is anyone buying this stuff?
Now someone can post here that I have proved nothing and in some universe that would be true, but you have to suspend a lot of disbelief to buy the Breitling story as CF presented it. Maybe there was another company that CF formed up that he worked on part time and never mentioned.
Does it make any sense at all that this global company with thousands of fracked wells is now ducking process servers and has no right to do business in its home state?
It is certainly possible that everything CF said was technically true and that is why I said I had never caught him in a lie, but I smelled a rat early on because of my experience and I hope some people listened.
